JSC @ Supercomputing Conference SC'13

17-22 November 2013
Denver, Colorado, USA

SC13, the premier international exhibition and conference on high-performance computing, networking, storage, and analysis, will take place in Denver, Colorado, USA, from 17 to 22 November 2013, where JSC will present its supercomputing activities at booth #3336. JSC staff will demonstrate scientific simulations on supercomputers and the supercomputing tools LLView, Scalasca, Sionlib, and UNICORE, all developed in-house.

JSC's activities in current European supercomputing activities will also be showcased, particluarly its involvement in the Human Brain Project, a European Flagship Project. JSC staff will also be on hand continuously at the joint booth of the European Exascale Projects DEEP, MontBlanc, and CRESTA (#3741), and at the PRACE booth (#3341).

As part of the conference programme, JSC staff will give a tutorial on "Practical Hybrid Parallel Application Performance Engineering", present talks, and will participate in numerous special interest group sessions ("Bird-of-a-Feather", BoF).
